So daemonfowl, it is unclear whether you are attempting to build ports on a -stable installation, or one with a recent snapshot installed.

Likewise, there is no mention as to what version of the ports tree is installed.

Per Section 15.4.2 of the FAQ:
Quote:
WARNING: DO NOT mix versions of Ports and OpenBSD!
It is not clear from discussion thus far that the ports tree used matches the version of the operating system installed. daemonfowl, you need to state precisely how the ports tree was obtained. If OpenBSD 5.1-stable is installed/built as the operating system, you will have had to synchronize source code to the OPENBSD_5_1 CVS tag name for the src, xenocara, and ports branches. Any other action taken will have resulted in a version mismatch.
